The government has introduced changes to the Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs days after the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) opened the portal for registrations.

Speaking during the first graduation ceremony of Ollessos National Polytechnic, Deputy President Kithure Kindiki revealed that there was a need for changes in the TVETs so that they can align and tend to the modern needs of the Kenyan youths so they don't overstay in the job market.

Kindiki was reiterating sentiments by Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba, who outlined the changes in TVET.

Among the changes, Kindiki revealed that the curriculum for TVETs will be changed and reviewed to include short two- and three-week courses.
